Here, we’ll explore the importance of securing your career with our indemnity cover, shedding light on the mandatory requirements set by the Malaysian Dental Council (MDC) that will come into effect in 2025.
The MDC Mandate: A Turning Point for Malaysian Dentists
The Dental Act 2018 (Act 804) that took effect on January 1, 2022,replacing the longstanding Dental Act 1971, designed to accommodate advancements in dental practices and technology, providing a broader regulatory framework. Of particular importance is the introduction of Professional Indemnity Cover as a mandatory requirement for dental practitioners.
